zWhen using thread that winds off quickly, such as transparent nylon thread or metallic thread, place the spool net over the spool before placing the spool of thread onto the spool pin. If the spool net is too long, fold it to fit the size of the spool.

When the spool net is used, the upper thread tension may become tighter. Before sewing, refer to "Adjusting the thread tension" (page 62).
